@KevinDeLury@_Jack I guess you are both right. I just read in Norwegian press that, he was officially signed, but still waiting on visa. But then again, Norwegian press doesnt really know NHL and hockey.

Norwegian newspaper Verdens Gang have spoken to Zuccarello, and he says that he is not flying to NY today, but that he is ready leave on short notice. Deal not finalized yet, but expected to be done later today (waiting on approval from KHL team). Zucc adds that this is an opportunity he could not let go, because it might be his last chance making it in the NHL. One-way, remainder of the season deal. Will not play in World championships even if the rangers does not make the playoffs.

The rumors in Norway is that Zuccarello has been offered a contract, but not agreed to the terms, due to issues around the contract length. So if nothing changes, the hobbit will not return to broadway. But again, nothing official , so you never know.
